Hi,
I think that we can add an option to bound the results to the current
viewport. That option would be passed to nominatim or any other search
engine.
Personally, I would prefer the search bounded by default, but users
could change it to "everywhere" to see additional results.
Regards,
J. Gustavo

If you type in 'Starbucks' in the search box, then you just get
objects named that way. No difference with searching for, say Berlin.
Now, if you type 'cafes' in the search box, then you are probably
looking for all amenity=cafe and that is a POI search. It's true
that this particular query doesn't work on osm.org <http://osm.org>.
You have to
additionally specify a place, e.g. 'cafes in Poughkeepsie' actually
returns the one Starbucks in town.
if I search for
"Starbucks in Holland" I get not hit, neither for
"Starbucks in the Netherlands"
"Starbucks in Netherlands"
"Starbucks in Amsterdam"
but "starbucks, Netherlands" yields a lot of results (there's even a
restaurant among them). Btw., also "starbucks, Holland" leads to a lot
of results (not sure if they are the sama, they are in different sorting
order at least). You can even omit the comma, but you shouldn't add an
"in" because this will lead to no results.
Cheers,
Martin
